The sound quality of this device really is stunning, and this probably would be a great for somebody who wants to use it exclusively for playing music. They even have a neat free set of cool radio stations available if you register the product.
The reason for my discontent is that one of the descriptors "plays everything" is entirely untrue.
The play:1 works exclusively through the free Sonos app. This set up does not allow the possibility of using the speaker to play the sound when you stream Netflix from iPad, Apple TV, or phone. The Ethernet setup is fairly straightforward, but the wireless setup is murder, and after several hours I'm still not able to connect wirelessly.
Again the sound quality is great. And the product is visually aethsetic. But since it does not actually "play everything" I will be returning the device.

I have been a big fan of Sonos products since many many years and ended with almost all my rooms equipped with the different versions of the Sonos products with the years. Being able to link your own library or service providers such as Apple music or Spotify is great. Their products and software has become more and more easy to use and powerful. The possibility to play the same music across different rooms without any micro second of delay is fantastic. Their customer service is really great and responsive. It is a bit technical sometimes to set up such a system in a multi-wifi environment (my case) and I still love the product very much after all these years. Got a few Sonos I a couple of years ago. Great sound system, clear and powerful. Bass is very good for the size. I paired one as a stereo in one room. My only regret is that they do not have the line-in plug anymore. But you can beam what you have in your iTunes library on your iPhone very easily, or access it through the music service. Never had any of my ~10 sonos (not kidding) broken or failing. This is a great product and I am a big fan.

Our old JBL bluetooth speaker died and needed a quick replacement for the Memorial Day weekend. Thanks to Apple courier service, we had this Sonos speaker the next day. Easy to set up, the quality of the sound was stunning. We hooked up our Pandora service and our household iTunes account via the Sonos app. It's wonderful-we couldn't be happier. And it looks great on the side table.

The speaker itself is amazing. the quality is crystal clear but there are a few bugs that must be sorted out before I would give 5 stars. It lost one star becuse of the fact that you cannot just play straight from AppleMusic you have to go through this whole round about process of downloading an app witch is super annoying. the other star that it lost was because you can't play Netflix or watch YouTube through the speaker. It does not "play everything". I think you can watch Netflix and the like if buy the SoundBar but don't quote me on that. All in all if you are looking to get a speaker to play music and are okay with downloading an app this is the speaker for you! sound quality is amazing! but if you are hopping to do other stuff like watching media I would suggest a simpler bluetooth speaker. I will be keeping this speaker primarily for the sound quality and in hope that it gets better because apparently it "updates".

These are really good looking speakers and they have a good sound but they are extremely limited. Not worth the hassle of the connection. The connection is sometimes very slow and you keep having to unplug then replug for it to connect, it doesn’t even have an on/off button/switch. If your wifi doesn’t work, the speakers also don’t work... you have to use their own sonos app for the connection to happen. Their youtube app also requires signing up and paying monthly fees. Overall not very user friendly and definitely not worth buying.

These Sonos Play:1 do NOT support AirPlay directly, however they can play iTunes playlists and tracks via an an amazingly rapid import (true like for like) into the Sonos application.
To get AirPlay support on the Play:1's - like the Play:Bar supports, you'll seen Sonos Base, Bridge or AMP. Those will connect to the Play:1/:3/:5's and provide it's own WiFi Mesh network and that base will plug into your home audio or into AirPort Express/Extemee for AirPlay support.
